Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Menu item order in the System Navigator
By default, menu items in the HPE Service Manager System Navigator are displayed in ascending alphabetical order. You can disable this option so that menu items are displayed in the order in which they arrive from the server. Additionally, system administrators can group menu items to make it easier for end users to navigate within the system.
In the web client, the alphabetical sorting of System Navigator menu items is defined by the sortNavItems parameter in the web.xml file. The default is "true" (enabled).
In the Windows client, the alphabetical sorting of System Navigator menu items is defined by the "Sort menu items alphabetically in the System Navigator" option. To configure this option, click Window > Preferences > HPE Service Manager > Appearance.
